    Starting to get the hang of this. One of my NVS goals is to feel less hot in the summer months and dropping some weight will help with that!

    @RoseyandReady fabulous loss! I am sure losing some weight will definitely benefit your body temps in the summer! I am hoping it helps me as well! :)

    Exercise: yes
    Steps: 13,100

    While I did not eat/drink well (because let’s face it wine is really what gets me on the weekend 😆) I am proud that I still made myself track everything. I know that it is important to see the number calories I am consuming to really get it. Often in the past I just wouldn’t track on those days I knew I went over. So, I guess there’s growth at least!

    Happy Sunday all!

    @jmalderman you had some amazing steps over the weekend, and you are doing great with keeping yourself accountable! I had to cut back on wine coming into the new year because I felt like I was getting too lax when I would have it on the weekend! Great job!

    Came down with bronchitis. So the eating has been good (don’t feel like eating) but no exercise.

    @simbersea first of all-wonderful loss this week! Secondly, I hope you feel better! Bronchitis is no fun, and I hope it resolves quickly, and you begin to feel better! Also, wonderful stepping, even while you are not feeling well!!!

    *Daily personal goal this week* Eliminate eating from 730pm to 1130am the next day.
    No, I need to remember to do this even on days that are filled with activity(What can I substitute for eating when everyone around me is eating?? Gum?? (Suggestions, anyone?)

    @Krysless2 I unfortunately don't have any suggestions that will help with IF, but maybe adjust your window of eating on days that you know will be out with others? Or just have a light snack instead of a regular meal if you know you will be out later than usual? Other than that I don't really have any good suggestions...

    @GuessimGryffindor yes! I meant to mention that! Your Weigh-In day was changed to Saturday! Please make sure you are submitting your weigh in on Saturday. With weigh in days being on Saturday, there is a higher risk of being removed if you miss a week and post late the following week :grimace:

    So my weigh in day isn't until Friday, but just wanted to update since my goal this week was to get my second number to 2 instead of 3... goal accomplished! Weighed in this morning at 129 (I know, small victory, but I will take it) so my new goal for this week is to keep that number at at 2 and at least go down a pound or two. :)

    I hate that I’ve been literally going over calories all week. But at least I’m being accountable and being honest with myself! I’m taking each day one at a time and with each day a new start! I’m determined to make March a killer month! :smile:

    I understand this completely. Even when I am over being accountable feels like a win. Best of luck for your March!

    You must weigh-in daily like I do. That is one of best things I ever did was get rid of my scale-fear. I used to never get on it even when dieting because I thought if it fluctuated a tiny bit I would get angry and quit. But once I let those feelings go it became mechanical. I weigh every day now and treat that number like data for a science experiment. Input, crunch my numbers, adjust.
    Great job! So proud of you!

    Yes, I do weigh myself every morning. It is just habit and it keeps me aware. I think it can be stressful for some people but I make a point to keep in mind that certain times of the month I am always 2 or 3 pounds heavier and I think the daily weigh in sets my tone for the day.

    Thanks!!

    Ahhhh the weather was absolutely BEAUTIFUL for early March! It was 70 degrees, and sunny! After work, I ended up going with the boys to the park for a walk, and then took a walk/run when I got home... I was a little faster than last week, and went a hair further! I completed 2.6mi in 40:08, when it took me 46:20 last week. I did "run" more(maybe only walked .9miles?)!

    I am crossing my fingers for a good weigh in tomorrow, but my weight has been up the last couple days, and I'm not too sure! I will get to all of the posts I missed in the morning! You are all doing so awesome!
